You couldn't pay me enough to move back into a big city... Any big city, much less to the upper east coast or anywhere on the west coast. I lived in Denver for a few years and had enough, so I moved back home. And the main reason was the constant police harassment. Got tired of getting tickets...
The lines should be 1/2" from the tank all the way to the booster pump no matter what kind of hose you use, then from the booster pump on through the rest of the filters and to the hydraulic head should be 3/8". You need the larger hose on the suction size to provide adequate flow at lower...
